Bright, bold, and ready to party—Skeinfetti is a celebration in every stitch. A crisp white base bursts with rainbow sprinkles of color, like confetti tossed over buttercream or joy scattered across your needles. It's playful, cheerful, and just a little bit sweet—perfect for when your project calls for something that sparkles with personality. Whether you're casting on birthday socks or just need a pick-me-up skein, Skeinfetti brings the fun every time.
Please note that although I try to ensure that the colors shown in my product photos are as true to color as possible, colors may vary depending on your monitor or device. As you choose your bases, please remember that different fibers and yarn weights take dye differently; therefore, there may be some variation to the color shown if you purchase a different yarn base.
About Our Yarn Bases
All the bases offered by Jolly Holiday Yarns are sourced from reliable material suppliers where we can establish best practice in relation to animal care and the environment, as well as the best rearing and grading practices. No animals are injured to provide our fiber, as we only use shorn or material that has shed naturally from the animal.
The bases are sourced from Australia (the farms are certified Mulesing Free), South America, and South Africa. All our wool is sourced from farms that comply with high animal welfare standards. The fibers are sourced by my yarn supplier and are sent to Italy for spinning before heading to my little shop.
